I just don't understand why a sales person who is there to win business from a customer would go out of his way to be rude, obnoxious and disrespectful. Oh well, his loss; no commission and no in one for the company. Maybe one day he'll be looking for a new job huh.
I'll find someone to do the job eventually; I'm disinclined to work with people I don't feel comfortable with so will take some time to find the right company.
My grandpa always used to say the customer is the King. And I think he was right ☺
Here there's a saying, the customer is always right.
I disagree and change it as follows:
The customer isn't always right, but is always the customer.
The same thing as your grandpa really.
I like the phrasing of that much better! They aren't always right but they are a customer. You can treat them proper and still sort-of let them know they're a dumbass or asshole and then refuse their business.
So with doesn't seem to value courtesy much anymore.
